Re: Hey, where are all the cool people? |
Tell said:
"...always a source of puzzlement for me to find that various interests and behaviors of mine do not represent "cool" for the kids..."
And then, Tell said:
"I did read in Dear Abbey today..."
And Tell's kids said:
"OMG, ROTFLMAOAD"

Re: Hey, where are all the cool people? |
I am always happy to provide entertainment--first my wife, then my kids, now the Forum. If any more were let in on the absurdity of my so-called life, it might disrupt the space-time continuum...warp it even.

"the absurdity of my so-called life"
I just knew there was a common thread that linked us, above and beyond that hippy pop group people keep banging on about.

Re: Hey, where are all the cool people? |
Don't worry I have the exact same problem. I have gotten way less cool in my son's eyes since I revived this grateful dead thing. He informed me the other day that people who listen to the grateful dead are not normal. He admits some of the music is good, but the phenomenon overall is simply not normal.

Re: Hey, where are all the cool people? |
Sounds like your son is pretty perceptive
If it were normal would we be here?
Daughter: "Mom, What's a Deadhead?"
Wife: "Someone who likes the Grateful Dead more than is good for them."
Another good Wife quote: "All their songs sound the same, except some are worse than others"

My family is always informing me that they've "heard that song a thousand times" when I think I've only played it 2 or 3 times. "Sure it's a good song but arrrrrgggghhh!"
